Mcf2l Gene Summary [Mouse]

Enables 1-phosphatidylinositol binding activity and guanyl-nucleotide exchange factor activity. Acts upstream of or within Rho protein signal transduction and positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Located in lamellipodium and membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including brain; liver; retina; right atrium; and testis. Orthologous to human MCF2L (MCF.2 cell line derived transforming sequence like).

Protein Domains

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Mcf2l often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
